The high generalized inflation and the considerable reduction in demand for PCs has led to Dell to transform their line of business and focus on offering complete and flexible solutions to companies to help them boost generative AI. In this way, it contributes to the complete transformation of work models, the profitability of data and the increase in productivity.
For Dell, the most promising business today is sale of equipment, servers, data storage devices and network hardware For businesses. It is estimated that the growth of this business division It will be around 7% in the coming yearsalmost double the initial forecasts.
During the third quarter of 2022, PC sales fell 11% and Dell found an ally in the sale of business hardware to boost generative AI and its sales rates. In fact, Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) accounted for 40% of all sales harvested in the last quarter of last year. This leads Dell to increase its servers and networks to cope with the high demand.
Dell maintains its strategy to improve its professional services to Helping businesses prepare for generative AI through services of: data management, implementation to create operational generative AI platforms and educational services to train clients in essential skills.
How has it transformed your business?
Dell’s sale of business hardware gives you a competitive advantage compared to other brands, hence there is optimized server shipments to reduce waiting times and have sufficient stock to meet the forecasts.
Similarly, Dell has focused on working with a stronger connection and Scalable ASP that allow increasing growth forecasts. In this sense, Jeff Boudreau, Chief AI Officer at Dell Technologies, has highlighted the importance of having a solid foundation for AI initiatives in your infrastructure. With these advances, they will be able to take on workloads in the public cloud, edge and on-premises environments with an efficient deployment of generative AI adaptable to any environment.
The company’s latest bet
Dell Validated Design for Generative AI arises from the hand of NVIDIA to offer companies personalized generative AI models, with professional services that optimize strategy development and allow intelligence to be extracted from data without the need to build models from scratch.
This new functionality includes everything from data preparation to the implementation of use cases and operational efficiency. You must also take into account a innovative scale-out lakehouse engine that allows clients to modernize their data, in an open and secure way. All this is possible thanks to the agreement reached with Starbust. Starbust analysis software can be integrated with the platform Dell PowerEdge and Dell storage, driving analytics and AI-based deployments.
Dell Validated Design models for Generative AI support inference and model tuning to accelerate the deployment of new versions of Generative AI from proven infrastructure such as High Performance AI Server Dell PowerEdge XE9680 and the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software.
The new solution It will be available in the first half of 2024 and will be integrated into the analysis software Startbust with the platform PowerEdge Dell and storage Dell2. It is designed with open software principles and scalable architecture, so customers will be able to obtain secure access to multicloud data and deployments based on analytics and AI.
In another order, Dell has announced the availability of Dell APEX Cloud Platform for Microsofta new integrated system that brings the hybrid cloud experience of Microsoft Azure to data center and edge environments, simplifying all management tasks.
Companies had closed themselves to the adaptation of generative AI due to three fundamental questions: Concerns about security, technical complexity and data governance. However, surveys show that a third of companies are considering build a specific LMS and they are using pre-trained models. This requires a modern data strategy that unleashes generative AI in the organization.
